There’s a lot of things you can do that will mess up headphones. All of which are ordinary use of headphones.

Considering modern technology, I think that having it loud will not wear it down too quickly. But if both the headphones and source volume are at max, I’d still expect you’re hurting its lifespan. At shortest, maybe they’ll last 2 years, but you can easily hope for more (though assuming that volume is the only abuse they suffer from).

yeah, you can blow them out. But frankly, i would be more concerned about your ears.
